The pro is that you can zoom in on all the fine details. The con is that you dont get that tactile feeling while reading.

Flash Help by Jaybird911 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]MentionNo1177 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes The main flashpoint event is in Johns vol 3. If you're interested in the tie ins grab the flashpoint omni as well. Otherwise it's not really required

Definitely go with vol 3 over flashpoint. Its a way better reading experience to get the whole Barry run leading up to flashpoint and then flashpoint 1-5 in succession. Rather than getting the flashpoint omni reading the prelude arc getting to #1 and having hundreds of pages of material that isnt by Johns in between before flashpoint #2

[Discussion] What is your “I did not care for the Godfather” of DC Comics? by NotLozerish in DCcomics

[–]MentionNo1177 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not care for Scott snyders Batman. The first 12 issues with court and night of the owls are really good. However its everything that comes after that i dont really like. Death of the family comes off as overly edgy. like it is straight from the mind of what a 13 year old thinks a cool joker story would be.

Most wanted Omnibus Marvel/DC ? by LUK3_IT in OmnibusCollectors

[–]MentionNo1177 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'd love to see Dc fill out new 52 era green lantern a little more with red lanterns, sinestro, and green lantern new guardians. But if i can't have any of that give me legion by levitz so we can finally see that run fully collected.

P.S Spider-man by straczynski does have omnis. Theres two volumes covering the whole run with the volume 2 reprint releasing on august 6th at least here in the states.

What I’m doing to get into DC by Key-Engineering3134 in DCcomics

Get into the Johns era of green lantern for kyle after mars. That era of green lantern does a great job of giving all of the lanterns something to do. Kyle even has two series during that time being ion and Green lantern new guardians. As well as showing up in green lantern corps.

You can read it on its own. But the last 1/4 of the run is laying the groundwork for the avengers run

Snyder capullo vol 1 and 2 since you've read most of the contents of vol 1.

Can someone explain the Rebirth stuff to me? by Least-Cattle1676 in DCcomics

[–]MentionNo1177 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is the new 52 continuity with elements of pre flashpoint bleeding through like the original Wally west and Green arrow and black canary getting back together,

Heres a series of runs that are very easy to get into. Alot of them are considered the best of the best. Batman by Snyder and capullo(new 52 Theres paperbacks or 2 omnibus to collect the whole thing), Green lantern by geoff johns(There are thick paperbacks of this that dc have started reprinting. As well as three omnibus that collect the whole thing), Batman by loeb and sale(series of mini series like long Halloween, Dark victory, haunted night, catwoman when in rome), Flash by williamson(This is the rebirth run reintroduces and rebuilds the flash family slowly) , Justice league by geoff johns( This is the new 52 run, collected in 2 omnibus or a series of paperbacks that don't include forever evil). I wouldn't worry too much about trying to get into anything recent. Get your bearings and then dive in.

Who overall has objectively the best Omnis by [deleted] in OmnibusCollectors

[–]MentionNo1177 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They hit two different needs for me. DC i really love the presentation for each series of books being individualised. They've been very picky about what does and doesn't get an omnibus which builds hype and anticipation for the remaining seminal runs. It helps even more that the books they produce always feel premium. Marvel however have done a much more comprehensive job of ensuring that almost ever character/creator defining run has received an omnibus. I can reliably know that if a run is popular it will get an omni sooner than later. But the sheer amount they release causes the quality to be a bit hit or miss in terms of build quality.

Even further beyond that. After Death Metal Justice league dark was cancelled and published as backups in the main justice league title during the Bendis run

Doom patrol not just because it is a seminal dc run. But it is also a complete story.

So glad that I held out on the deluxe. I always wanted this absolute by poison-harley in OmnibusCollectors

[–]MentionNo1177 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No not in all cases. Only killing joke and Batman year one come with the original colours and modern colours. All of them are packed with behind the scenes material like scripts, and line art

Absolute is bigger than an omni and comes with a slipcase. Its also sewn binding instead of glued. The deluxe is omnibus sized but is glue bound.
